Charles Stahlberg and partners formed United Clock Company on December 5,
1885 in Peru, Illinois with the goal of manufacturing clocks based on a patented
technological innovation by Stahlberg which used lead with brass bushings for plates.

In 1887, the company reorganized as "Western Clock Company" and
then went bankrupt and was reorganized by F. W. Matthiessen in 1888 as the "Western
Clock Manufacturing Company."

In 1908, the company was granted a patent for the "Big Ben"
alarm clock movement. This movement had a "bell-back" design, which meant the
bell mechanism was integral to the clock's case.

Western Manufacturing Clock Company introduced the Big Ben in 1909.

In 1910, the Big Ben became the first alarm clock advertised
nationally, with ads placed in the Saturday Evening Post.

In 1910, The modern trademark of the company, "Westclox," first
appeared on the backs of Big Ben alarm clocks from 1910 to 1917.

The name appeared on Big Ben dials as early in 1911.

Western Manufacturing Clock Company was shortened to
"Western Clock Company" in 1912.

The trademark WESTCLOX was officially registered by the company on January
18, 1916.

In 1919, Western Clock Co., Ltd., was incorporated.

In 1931, WESTCLOX merged with Seth Thomas Clock Company.

Both companies became a division of General Time Corporation.

Westclox became known as "Westclox Division of General Time
Corporation" in 1936..
